I got to the field at about 6:30 and there are those huge Hollywood type
spot lights criss crossing the sky, there must be a dozen of them.
The temp is already warm and friendly, they have the entire field groomed
really low, it looks a lot like a golf green, with diagonal cut lines in the
I want to see pictures. Somehow I don't think so!

It will be both. Soaring and definetly landing.
Tom Kiesling doesn't fly with a skeg anymore at any contests to use it
as prep for FAI events. It will be a landing contest as well, balanced
by 12 minute (not an absolute) flights. But it's man on man... you don't
have to get 12, just beat
First launches begin in about 3mins, Arendt Borst is in the first group,
but heck, the names here make it 'everyone' is in the first group!
Mostly Supras, and Perfects.(

Stan,
This topic came up recently on one of the car forums I frequent. One guy
had success using very fine wet/dry sandpaper (used wet), the same stuff they
use in auto body painting, progressively finer, and finally polishing compound.
The sandpaper is available in Pep Boys and the like,
Gentleman:
The simplest thing to try with in house stuff is a soft fine weave
cotton cloth and toothpaste. Use the paste to wet out the cloth,
don't add much water, if any, unless the paste dries as it does.
Many toothpastes have a very fine grit, whether is be silica base or
titanium
When I was in college I used a combination of toothpaste/WD-40 to do a knock 'em dead polishing job on my motorcycle rims. The rust dissolved rather easy and polished out great. Amazing what one comes up with practically no budget.Too bad to hear that polishing compound doesn't work on

combinationsworks fine for mild scratches, discoloration, etc., but the
etching I'm talking about is a white glaze over the surface of the cover that is

Hi Stan,
I have sanded/polished my headlight lenses before. The Dodge/Chrysler Caravans are notorious for fogging up over time. Got to be so bad that I had to drive with my brights on just so I could see at night.
Because it was too hard to sand the lenses on the van without scratching the
I am just heading off the field, and I have to tell you this was nothing
less than expected!
Tough pilots all!
The Queen of the day isSharons!
Supras as usual, and Espadas both sharing with the Sharons.
Perfects have been perfect, so in the end its all good.
Standings? Well I would have
I used a product named Flitz with very good results on my CRV's
headlights covers. This product is very usefull for all kind of
polishing/cleaning. It is mild enough to polish blued metal gun parts
without removing the blue. I also used it to polish fiberglass fuselages.

Got off to a little bit of a late start today, on account of rain

the spacious AMA Flying Site. CD Mark Nankavil (apologies on the
